I listend to the Song "Hog And Goat". Can You tell me what the song is about. Don Carlos sings "Me think a soldier come but a hog and goat" what does he mean?

I think what Don Carlos means is that he and his brethren were sitting at home playing and listening to music and smoking ganja, basically just chillin' out. All of a sudden they hear a noise outside, which they think is a soldier coming to arrest them for growing herb. However, the noise isn't a soldier. A hog and goat outside have made the noises. This is my take on this classsic reggae song. Let me know if I am interpreting it correctly. Peace.

yeah you are right. the funny thing about it seems that the hog & goat and the soldiers are making the same noises.

can you help me to fill the lines to the song hog and goat?

Sitting on I Man corner one Sunday evening. Building a spliff of sensi with I and I Idren. Play... And it sure sounds sweet to me. Please tell me the missing line.

Thanks

Rain all night it is the tune which I will like to play these moment because I believe soon, in Togo, one renraen season (Mai-Juin)holy time for the grass men in good faith, to still meditate the glory of YAHWE on ground...
